House Review

Intro:
This is a single cask of Old Pulteney spirit, bottled by Old Pulteney for KLWines in California. A rare expression, given that it is bottled at cask strength, which is uncommon for Old Pulteney. This is cask #231.
-
Nose:
Sweet buttery caramel. Honey, pepper, lemon poppyseed. Butterscotch, salted caramel. Yum.
-
Taste:
Medium mouthfeel, honey, toffee, some heat. Ash, ethanol, pepper, light oak.
-
Finish:
Medium in length, but a bit hot. Honey, toffee, brine, oak, light ash and some cracked pepper.
-
Overall:
I like this but it's a bit hot, and fairly one dimensional. The nose was amazing, but unfortunately the palate and finish couldn't keep up.
